Casimir Pulaski Monument

Casimir Pulaski Monument, Bronze memorial in Monterey Square, Savannah, United States.

The Casimir Pulaski Monument is a 55-foot (17 m) memorial of Italian marble with granite elements, designed by Robert Launitz, in Monterey Square on Bull Street. It is topped by a statue of Liberty holding the stars and stripes banner, and its bronze bas-relief by Henryk Dmochowski depicts the moment Pulaski was mortally wounded. The monument also carries the coat of arms of Poland and of Georgia.

The Continental Congress resolved in 1779 to honor Pulaski, but the monument was not realized for decades. A cornerstone linked to Lafayette was moved from Chippewa Square to Monterey Square, where it was relaid on October 11, 1853, the anniversary of Pulaski's death. Funding of about $17,000 was secured, and the monument was dedicated on January 9, 1855. It was the first monument to Pulaski in the United States.

The monument carries the coat of arms of Poland and the coat of arms of Georgia, and its inscription calls Pulaski "the Heroic Pole, who fell mortally wounded, fighting for American Liberty at the siege of Savannah, October 9, 1779." A body said to be Pulaski's was buried beside it.

The monument stands at the corner of Bull and Wayne streets, in the middle of Monterey Square, and is one of only two monuments in Savannah still enclosed by its original railing, the other being the Civil War Memorial in Forsyth Park. The railing limits close approach, so the bronze bas-relief of Pulaski's death and the inscriptions are best read from the surrounding sidewalk.

The monument is one of only two in Savannah still enclosed by an iron railing, the other being the Civil War Memorial in Forsyth Park. A time capsule, possibly the first in Georgia, is said to be buried near the monument.
